Notes:

Traci used heat embossing & sponging to accentuate the "Best Wishes" greeting on this beautiful card.

Card Of The Day:

Sunday - March 22, 2009

The Big Shot was used with the Simple flower embosslit die to create the delicate Pink Pirouette flower featured in today's wonderful card made by Traci. A clear rhinestone brad was placed in the center to give it some sparkle. The Basic Gray card was matted first with Baja Breeze card stock punched at the top 2 corners with the Ticket corner punch & then with 2 different prints from the "Walk in the Park" Designer series paper. A knotted white grosgrain ribbon covers up the seam between both papers & the pink flower was added with a Stampin' dimensional. "Best wishes" was stamped with an Encore Silver pad onto white card stock, sprinkled with silver embossing powder & heated until shiny. After punching out the greeting with the large oval punch, Pink Pirouette ink was applied to the edges with a sponge dauber. A Baja Breeze scallop circle punch-out provides the mat for the greeting which was attached to the card with a Stampin' dimensional. Love the color combo!
